3. They can’t take charge

If you date broke guys, you can be sure a man who takes charge is what you’d never get. Take it from a dude who should know, your man’s ego is practically non-existent.

Though the ego is always taking a bad rap, it is important for our self-esteem. And with the lack of ego, your broke guy is practically an empty shell of a man.

4. Nobody would respect your man

It is the pride of any girl that people respect and look up to her man. But when your partner is perennially broke, everybody disrespects him in different ways.

His siblings make family decisions without seeking his input. They believe it is worthless because he has no money to back his words.

Friends too tend to bypass or avoid him for the same reason. Once in a while, a friend would invite your man for a drink or an outing just to ease their conscience.

But if it is something really important, your man is avoided like a diseased dog. That would surely rub off on you in a bad way.

5. Nothing ever happens in the relationship

At first you might like the idea of staying indoors with your broke guy. But after a while, it gets boring very fast.

Just like any normal couple, you would want to go out on dates, parties, holidays and outings to exciting places.

If you don’t have your own money to sponsor these activities, be prepared to live a life devoid of any excitement. Perhaps you’d have to learn the art of creating different forms of indoors activities to fill up those long boring hours.

So unless you are Mother Theresa or you are so rich and immune to insults, dating broke guys is a sure pathway to lots of frustrations. The question becomes, why do you want to hurt yourself so?
